Favorite smells - Page 4

trees, apples, the ocean, old books...

***Earniel*** · 10-07-2002, 06:26 AM

Oh yes, pancakes smell good too. (mmm, I'm getting hungry)

Another smell that I like is sandalwood. I've got this fan that's made out of small slices of sandalwood and it smells so good. I keep it in a box so the smell doesn't evaporate too quick and from time to time I take it out and get 'sandalwoodhigh'!

Galadriel88 - yes, y'all is a great word, so much nicer than "you guys", which is what we usually use out here. But I don't use y'all out here, you get too many strange looks.

I liked the smell of the earth after a summer rainstorm in Georgia, which we would watch sitting on the porch swing. Her house isn't there anymore, though - it got demolished to make way for the Atlanta airport expansion. My dad had the porch swing packed up and sent out to California. He said nothing else fit him like that porch swing. My sisters and I will fight over it when my dad is gone, I'm sure! Lots of good memories.

Are those Russian Olive trees? They have a small silver gray/white fuzzy type of leaf, and tiny white flowers in the spring, which smell wonderful. I planted two of these around a bench in part of my garden for this very reason! SMELL GOOD!

Or do all olive tree smell this good!

I love old books, the salty sea, petrol (sorry to admit that but it's true...) and people. You know how people you know well have a smell, and when you're near something of thiers (like a jumper or T shirt) you know it's their's....ahhh....

Bread, and fire also smell good! Mmmm, smoky smell...

Ground nutmeg--but maybe that's been covered under "Christmas"? I love the smell of my cranberry scented candle. Musty books in used bookshops. Hot chocolate. New tennis balls (but don't sniff the container...

)

But seriously, how can you like that smell?!! That's disgusting. I hate [edited].
They shed hair & dander all over the place and poo in a box right in the damn house for anyone to smell! And don't get me started on cat-breath (although that might have something to do with that dry cereal-food that are forced to eat

).
